This is driving me nuts. I've tried searching the forums but can't get a proper answer.
I upload my images to Flickr at a size of 1200x800. I would like this to be the size my images are displayed at but Flickr has other ideas and downsizes the image to 1024 at a guess. Why? All I want is to display the original image, I don't want it resizing to any other size!! If I wanted other sizes then I'd sharpen the images for these sizes, I don't want the original changing which causes a drop in image quality.

The original size is never displayed on the photo page.
You can control the largest displayed image size here:
www.flickr.com/account/prefs/res?from=privacy
Since your photos are only 1200px wide, the closest generated size that Flickr creates is 1024px. The next generated size up would be 1600px, which of course is larger than your originals, so Flickr cannot display that. If you want your photos to display larger, you need to upload larger versions.
There are no fixed dimensions for an image on the photo page. The display is fluid and will scale depending on the size of the viewer's browser window, to a maximum of whatever you've set in the preference I've linked to above, or the nearest available Flickr-generated size.

I think the OP is trying to avoid degradation of his images by Flickr, not resizing per se. If he uploads in 1024 or 1600 size, would both of those be preserved intact and displayed that way?

Kevin B Agar: I think you'll find that comes with compromise. Virtually all large social image sharing sites display images at precise sizes independent of the original image. If you want larger audiences, you'll have to accept a certain loss of control over the display of your content. Web sites need to balance quality with speed, so there will always be compression of some degree so those images can be downloaded quickly.
Since Flickr displays images at 1024px and 1600px wide (and 2048px is their largest size displayed), you could try uploading images at one of those precise sizes, and see if the displayed versions maintain a level of quality you would be happy with.

You can download any of the various sizes, including the originals, from the all sizes page for a given image. Click the download icon on the photo page to get there.

Yes, this won't help me download 7,000 photos though. I need a bulk download option that allows the ZIP file created to include the original size. Thanks!

Saying that, though, when you download an album using the 'download' link on the album page, the zipfile should have the original sizes. If you only got smaller size, that may mean that was the size you originally uploaded.

Brenda, thanks! I am not a PRO account, but will buy a month of PRO if that means I can get my original size. I am going to test now and see if I can get the originals in bulk. I was able to download one image in the original size, but then when in Bulk, the image was 600PX maz size. I'll report back.

"2. For the smaller albums, I am able to download the photos, however, even though I selected "Original quality" they are half the size of the original photos (e.g., for a photo that was originally 10.5 MB, the flickr downloaded version is 5.3 MB etc, I have tested this with more than one photo, they are all downloading at half the MB that the original photos are)."
I have right now tried to download an album from my page... That gave the original size. An album with 42 pictures. Does Flickr compress the pictures, if there's 500 pictures in it?

@andre, when I download a single photo, when you click the download button from the photo page, a list of photo sizes pops up, one of which says "original size".
When I click the download button next to the album name to download the entire album, it doesn't give me the option to pick a size, but I assumed it was trying to download the original size. When I look at the info for some of those downloaded photos, the pixel dimensions are the same as the originals, but the MB size is much smaller (about half the size).
Any ideas? Not really sure what this means/how to fix it.
Thank you!

I made a test downloading one of my albums (156 items). All images are exactly the same size (and quality) as those uploaded (long time ago, I keep them locally for reference).
But I was not able to download an album made of 758 photos. I got the message:
There was an error downloading this selection. Please try again maybe because I am not a Pro member, maybe because of the magical 500 number exceeded.

help.flickr.com/flickr-upload-requirements-HJxVc37jJm
Just to elaborate on what mcnod and Mable mentioned above, if you try to upload some other format, such as Canon RAW (CR2) or TIFF, Flickr will extract a thumbnail from that file and store it as if it were the original and the actual original CR2/TIFF/etc is discarded.
Canon inserts a full-size JPEG of the image in their CR2 files, so the image will be exactly the same in pixel dimensions, but about half of the original image in size.

I took a look at Mabel's TIFF file and it's a single-layer TIFF image (28.6 MB). When it is uploaded to Flickr, it is converted to JPEG (8.89 MB) and while there is some difference in quality due to JPEG compression, it is visually not perceptible.
Technically speaking, it's about 6 brightness levels on average, out of 255 for each channel, so it's visible in specialized image comparison software, but I cannot detect the difference by just looking at those images or even blending one to another.
Here's the difference, stretched to the full brightness range to make it visible):
In the context of this thread, uploading a TIFF image would indeed produce a smaller "original", but it would be different more than twice in size on average, so may be this is not the issue and instead, as suggested above, looking at images sizes in a compressed folder in the file explorer.

I was told last week (by Flickr Support) that Flickr (since the SmugMug takeover) no longer stores your original photos and that anything you upload is converted to a new file. This is extremely disappointing (even though I do back up on an external hard drive.

Number three here, who together with Nionyn and John Frattura would urge you to post a copy/paste of that staff message in this thread.

Flickr might be referring to the lossless compression they implemented a while back when Yahoo was giving away the unlimited storage they did not have:
code.flickr.net/2017/01/05/a-year-without-a-byte/
They are using lossless JPEG compression and are supposed to restore images exactly as they were before, but, naturally, we should expect some bugs, etc.
So, technically, it's a new file they have to grab and convert back to the user's original when requested.

Flickr never natively displays your original images. It generates different standard sizes for display on the site. If you allow it people can go view your "all sizes" page and view your original size, however. But it isn't displayed on the photo page directly.
And Flickr does compress the images it generates, trying to strike a balance between quality and download speed. You'll have to look around the site and decide if the quality is ok for you (since virtually every image you see is generated by Flickr, thus compressed by them).
The originals you upload however, are never altered or resized by Flickr in any way. They are literally a copy of the file you store on your computer, and stay that way.

The originals also gets compressed, i just checked, a 7,5 Mb image is only 7,1 Mb when downloaded, it does not seem to matter for the image quality, but it looks like some compression is going on...
